About Me

Larissa was a local nymph from Thessaly. She was described by Pausanias as a daughter of Pelasgus. However, Hellanicus states that the sons of Poseidon and Larissa were Achaios, Phthios, and Pelasgus. Strabo (Geographika, xiv) calls her a daughter of Piasus, a Pelasgian prince.The arx of Argos and two towns (one in Thessaly and one in the Peneus) are believed to have derived their name from her. (Smith p.722).She was represented on the obverse of common drachms produced by the city of Larissa between 400 BCE and at least 340 BCE, as a three-quarters face with outward flowing hair (Mørkholm p.85). This style was copied from the head of Arethusa by Cimon, depicted on Syracusan tetradrachms (Larson p.166, Mørkholm p.85). According to hoard evidence from Thessaly, this coinage was produced down to c. 320 BCE (Bellinger). Other coins depict Larissa seated, holding a hydria and with a spring nearby, confirming her status as a nymph (Larson p.165).Larissa is the fifth closest inner satellite of Neptune. It is named after Larissa, a lover of Poseidon (Neptune) in Greek mythology.Larissa is irregular (non-spherical) in shape and appears to be heavily cratered, with no sign of any geological modification. Little else is known about it. It is likely that Larissa, like the other satellites inward of Triton, is a rubble pile re-accreted from fragments of Neptune's original satellites, which were smashed up by perturbations from Triton soon after that moon's capture into a very eccentric initial orbit.[9]Larissa's orbit lies below Neptune's synchronous orbit radius, so it is slowly spiralling inward due to tidal decceleration and may eventually impact Neptune's atmosphere, or break up into a planetary ring upon passing its Roche limit due to tidal stretching.Harold J. Reitsema, William B. Hubbard, Larry A. Lebofsky and David J. Tholen based on fortuitous ground-based stellar occultation observations[4] on May 24, 1981.
